The International Standard Serial Number for the WNPS Douglasia publication is ISSN 1064-4032.
Name
Douglasia was selected as the name of the WNPS journal in 1977. Suggested by Arthur R. Kruckeberg, a founder and first WNPS president, the quarterly's name was adpoted in honor of Scottish botanist David Douglas (1798-1834) who led early expeditions in the PNW (1825-1827 in Washington and 1830-1832 in Oregon and California, both for the Horticultural Society of London).
Logo
The current WNPS logo was restyled by artist Louise Smith of Seattle. Anna Avalon's original design of a Douglas maple tree leaf with a sprig and cone of a Douglas-fir won the logo competition in 1979.
Printing
Douglasia presently is
printed on acid-free paper using 30% post-consumer waste.
